[pdf] We need a minimum pressure to circulate the oil. Circulation of oil is critical for cooling of the rotary screws and for the lubrication of the bearings. A rotary screw compressor has no oil pump. The oil is pumped through the system by the differences in pressure that exists inside the compressor. When. .
As I said earlier, the minimum pressure valve also acts like a check valve. This is to make sure that no air can flow back into the air compressor. This could happen for example when the compressor is. .
If you experience too much oil carry over (oil in your compressed air), it could be due to a bad minimum pressure valve. If you checked everything, oil separator, oil level, scavenge line, temperatures,. .
The minimum pressure valve doesn’t need any real maintenance. It is advised to change the seals every few thousand running hours. If the valve is malfunctioning, changing the seals usually solves the problem.
